We've compiled the most frequently asked questions about our services, working model, and processes. If you can't find what you're looking for, feel free to reach out to us directly.
Fantastic! To start a new project, please contact us at info@fixer.com.tr. After we receive your project details, we'll set up a Google Meet to dive deeper into your requirements.
Our expertise covers a broad spectrum of digital solutions designed to meet your needs. We specialize in website creation, custom software development, robust Content Management Systems (like Umbraco), comprehensive e-commerce platforms, seamless API integrations, and professional email campaign setup. We also ensure your peace of mind with dedicated post-launch maintenance and support.
Project costs are determined by their unique scope and duration. Our approach is to understand your budget first, then tailor the most effective solution to meet it. If you're not yet certain of your budget, just provide us with your project details, and we'll assist you.
We believe in keeping you informed every step of the way. After project initiation, we share progress updates regularly. This includes weekly Google Meet sessions and email communications to maintain transparency. For task management, we're flexible, commonly using Trello, Linear, or your preferred platform.
Project duration depends entirely on its scope. A small-scale corporate website, for instance, usually takes 4-6 weeks to complete. As each project receives a customized solution, the timeline will be determined specifically for your project.
Before starting a project, we conduct a thorough needs analysis to clarify all requirements. Following that, we create a roadmap that includes design, development, testing, and deployment phases. We execute all stages in close coordination with our clients, ensuring progress through regular feedback loops.
Yes, we do. We offer free support for a specific period after project completion. Additionally, we provide separate support packages for long-term maintenance, updates, and ongoing technical assistance.
We primarily work with .NET, Umbraco CMS, React, and various cloud services (such as AWS and Google Cloud). We prioritize performance and sustainability by selecting the most suitable technology for each project.
Umbraco is an open-source content management system (CMS) built on Microsoft .NET and ASP.NET Core, with more than 500,000 active installations worldwide. It provides a modern and flexible foundation for corporate websites, multilingual platforms, and custom digital projects.
While the platform offers full customization freedom for developers, it also provides a user-friendly management interface for content teams. At Fixer, we have been developing Umbraco projects since 2014, and since 2017 we have been serving as a Registered Umbraco Partner.
Umbraco is built on Microsoft .NET and ASP.NET Core, which delivers high performance, strong security, and enterprise-level scalability.
Since the .NET ecosystem is considered an industry standard in enterprise software development, websites built with Umbraco remain stable even under high traffic loads. The platform also integrates seamlessly with Microsoft Azure, AWS, and other cloud infrastructures.
This technical foundation provides a sustainable architecture for corporate projects designed to grow over time.
Umbraco can be used for a wide range of projects, including corporate websites, multilingual platforms, e-commerce projects, intranet systems, and custom digital portals.
Because the platform does not impose predefined templates, the design and content architecture can be fully tailored to project requirements.
Globally recognized brands such as Microsoft, Peugeot, Heinz, and Fox use Umbraco as their CMS infrastructure. At FIXER, most of our projects consist of corporate websites and digital platforms requiring custom integrations.
Yes. The core Umbraco software is completely open source and free of licensing costs, which provides a significant cost advantage compared to enterprise CMS platforms such as Sitecore or Kentico, where annual licensing costs can reach tens of thousands of dollars.
Typical project costs generally include:
Design
Software development
Hosting
Maintenance and updates
Umbraco Cloud, the managed cloud solution provided by Umbraco, is available under a subscription model. At FIXER, we help determine the most suitable licensing and hosting model based on your project scope.
Yes. When properly structured, Umbraco provides a highly intuitive content management interface, even for non-technical teams.
Tasks such as creating pages, editing content, uploading images, and updating information can be easily managed.
In FIXER projects, we typically complete editor training within a 1–2 hour session, after which teams are able to manage the system independently. Ease of use largely depends on how the project is initially structured, which makes proper content architecture design critical.
Umbraco offers a stronger architecture for enterprise and highly customized projects, while WordPress stands out with rapid deployment and a large plugin ecosystem.
Because WordPress relies on thousands of third-party plugins, security risks often originate from these plugins. In contrast, Umbraco includes much of its functionality within the core system, significantly reducing the attack surface.
Thanks to its .NET-based architecture, Umbraco is particularly advantageous for:
Custom software integrations
Multilingual platforms
Enterprise-scale projects
At FIXER, we develop projects on both platforms and provide vendor-neutral technology consulting.
Umbraco provides one of the best cost-to-flexibility balances among enterprise CMS platforms, thanks to its zero license cost, .NET infrastructure, and intuitive editor interface.
Drupal: A powerful open-source CMS, but technically complex with a limited content editor experience.
Sitecore: Offers advanced personalization and marketing automation, but annual licensing costs can reach tens of thousands of dollars.
Kentico: A strong .NET-based platform, but its high licensing cost and configuration complexity can be disadvantages.
Umbraco: Provides zero licensing cost, enterprise-grade .NET architecture, and an intuitive interface for content editors, making it an attractive option for organizations seeking to optimize licensing costs.
Yes. Umbraco is a CMS platform designed to meet enterprise-level security standards, built on the secure foundation of Microsoft .NET.
Compared to WordPress, its lower dependency on third-party plugins reduces potential attack vectors.
The platform supports:
Role-based access control
Multi-factor authentication (MFA)
Regular security updates
At FIXER, security configuration and version update processes are included as part of our standard maintenance services.
Yes. Umbraco provides full technical control over SEO, allowing customization from URL structure to schema markup.
The platform fully supports management of:
URL structure and canonical tags
Meta titles and descriptions
Hreflang tags
XML sitemaps
Schema markup integration, Core Web Vitals optimization, and page speed improvements can also be implemented easily within Umbraco projects. This level of technical control provides a significant competitive advantage for SEO-focused corporate websites.
Yes. Umbraco provides native multilingual support, allowing separate content variations and URL structures for each language.
For example, /tr/, /en/, /de/. The platform also supports hreflang tag management.
At FIXER, we have developed many multilingual corporate platforms, including Turkish, English, and German.
Yes. Since Umbraco 12, headless CMS architecture has been natively supported, without requiring additional installations or plugins.
Through the Content Delivery API, content can be distributed across multiple channels, including:
Websites
Mobile applications
Digital displays
IoT devices
This approach is ideal for omnichannel strategies, where content is managed centrally and delivered across multiple platforms.
For teams seeking a fully managed headless solution, Umbraco Heartcore is available as a separate SaaS product.
Yes. Umbraco supports AI integration at the platform level. The Umbraco.AI infrastructure provides tools that accelerate content generation, optimization, and editorial workflows.
The platform can also integrate with:
OpenAI and Azure OpenAI
Custom AI services
Through the MCP Server protocol announced in 2025, Umbraco can also work directly with AI development tools such as Claude, GitHub Copilot, and VS Code.
Yes. With the Umbraco Engage extension, personalization based on user behavior, A/B testing, and conversion analytics can be configured directly from the management interface.
These capabilities position Umbraco beyond a traditional CMS and into the Digital Experience Platform (DXP) category.
According to G2’s 2025 reports, Umbraco has been recognized as a leader in the Digital Experience Platforms category. It is a powerful solution for organizations aiming to deliver personalized content and measure conversion performance.
Umbraco Cloud is the fully managed cloud version of Umbraco CMS running on Microsoft Azure, where hosting, security updates, and deployment processes are automatically handled by the platform.
However, using Umbraco Cloud is not mandatory. The CMS can also run on your own servers or any preferred cloud provider.
Umbraco Cloud automatically manages:
Development / staging / live environments
CI/CD deployment processes
Automatic version updates
For teams that want to reduce operational workload, Umbraco Cloud provides a practical solution. At FIXER, we help evaluate the most appropriate hosting model for your project.
Umbraco follows a predictable Long-Term Support (LTS) release schedule, where each LTS version receives security and bug-fix support for three years. This prevents unexpected mandatory upgrades.
When using Umbraco Cloud, updates are managed automatically. For projects hosted on private infrastructure, major version upgrades typically require planned developer work.
At FIXER, we provide version upgrade and maintenance services for existing Umbraco projects, and to date we have completed all version migrations with zero downtime.
Yes. Websites built on WordPress, Drupal, Sitecore, or custom CMS platforms can be migrated to Umbraco.
A typical migration process includes:
Content transfer
Preserving the existing URL structure
Implementing 301 redirect strategies to prevent SEO loss
At FIXER, we offer a free technical pre-analysis for migration projects.
Most likely yes. The majority of websites running on WordPress, Drupal, or custom CMS systems can be migrated to Umbraco or rebuilt using Umbraco infrastructure.
Umbraco becomes particularly valuable when the project requires:
A multilingual structure
CRM / ERP integrations
More flexible content management
Long-term scalability
To make the right decision, the current technical infrastructure and project goals should be evaluated together. At FIXER, we provide this analysis through a free discovery consultation.
The cost of an Umbraco project depends on its scope, but thanks to its open-source license, high licensing costs associated with platforms like Sitecore or Kentico are eliminated from the start.
Key factors affecting the total cost include:
Design originality and number of pages
Integration requirements (ERP, CRM, etc.)
Technical complexity
At FIXER, we can provide an estimated cost range during the initial consultation based on your project scope.
Umbraco is a proven CMS infrastructure for corporate websites, multilingual platforms, custom software integrations, and digital projects with long-term growth goals.
There is no single CMS that fits every project. The right platform depends on project scope, content management requirements, and the structure of the technical team.
With 10+ years of Umbraco experience, FIXER provides vendor-neutral technology evaluation to help you select the most appropriate platform for your project.
